Which is actually a good thing. Might sound scarry and counterintuitive at first, but is the right way to go.
Especially with a custom domain, (can be smth cheap for 2 bucks a year) and using aliases for all the different places... like onlyfans@mydomain com.. this prevents other malicious services from sending spam to your main email adress, since you can just delete the alias.
My point was more that if you do change email address, you should change to your own domain, since then you won't have to change it again in the future :)
Yeah this is great. I use a catchall email so anything @ my domain goes to me.
yeah.. me too... thankfully no one tried to bruteforce, at least not for now 😅
